HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Chris_90 - 08-12-2013

Looking at a Hdi some time this week for the 205, but can I check it is ok off the car? Don't wanna buy a naffed one.

How do I check it?

Thanks in advance Smile

Wouldn't bother there wank

Can't really check it off the car, I'm sure it'll be ok

Paired up with a gt20 + weight of a 205 I'd say it'd be quite a good combination.

No way to check the gear selectors? Any thing like that?

It's more the small wheels on a 205 makeing the gear ratios smaller, Hdi box will help with that with the longer ratios, if that make sense lol hard to explain but I no what I mean Wink

Chris what size tyres are you running?

Couldn't tell you tbh 14's I no that but can check tomorrow, only got car today so not clued up on it all yet


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Anton - 08-12-2013

Let us know, can work out the speed differences


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Chris_90 - 08-12-2013

I would guess at 55/60 profile being the 205


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Danny2009 - 08-12-2013

Everyone rants and raves about them I fitted one and went back to a xud box but each to their own


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Piggy - 08-12-2013

I dont see the point with a xud9 in a 306...

but for a lighter/smaller car or for the xud11 I think its great


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Tom - 08-12-2013

Wheel size makes over 1000rpm difference when cruising at 70? I'm using an xud box now and I'm still at 4krpm when cruising at 80mph :/


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Anton - 08-12-2013

^^^ lol im doing about 120mph at 4k


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Tom - 08-12-2013

I want that Sad


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Piggy - 08-12-2013

at 70 mines like ticking over


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Anton - 08-12-2013

Nah its hardly comfortable in a ZX let alone a 205!


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Piggy - 08-12-2013

yeah...lol...120+ in tin box must be scarely as hell


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Tom - 08-12-2013

So why is my gearing so weird? It used to be about 2750rpm in the 306 at 70 :/


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Anton - 08-12-2013

Tyre size?

^^^^ that's why I wanna put one on lol plus in a "tin can" I'm sure it will be capable of maxing out so 120mph sounds fun Wink all tho it will never go above 70 of course Tongue


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Tom - 08-12-2013

I'm running 14s 175 65 14... They're not much of a different size to 195 50 15 :/


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Chris_90 - 09-12-2013

The 205 is running 165/60/14 tyres at the min if you can work that out anton?


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Dave - 09-12-2013

Hdi box all the way Big Grin


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Chris_90 - 09-12-2013

On the subject of gearbox any one got some ideas on how I can get the pin out the clutch arm, it will tap in but just carnt get enough grip to pull it out Sad


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Tom - 09-12-2013

Moleys? Hammer and chisel lol

Tried both Sad

Tom yours is running a td04 int it?

Any issues with gear linkages near/hitting turbo?


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - Tom - 09-12-2013

When I go into reverse the linkage is like a nats dick away from the downpipe plate. But then I am using 10mm plate!

Get a bite in with the chisel then at a bit of an angle aiming outwards and twat it again.

So with that then at 60mph I will actually be doing 55mph?


RE: HDI box on xud how to check Hdi box is ok - mr_fish - 10-12-2013

On my hdi box the speedo was 10mph out, so when at 60mph on the dash...actually 50mph. Changed the speedo drive cog to an XUD one and that corrected it. Just saying something to maybe look at.

I was thinking this tbh, i remember seeing some one have issue with speedo not reading right, is it easy to swap?
